    Funny tombstone
    Rosemary P.

    Bullwinkle's in Upland is a fun throwback spot with arcade games, mini golf, bumper cars, and tons of family-friendly chaos. The western mini golf theme is neat and those tombstones, hilarious!! There's also a story book theme we will try it next time, or the other one. (Outdoor) We haven't played in the outdoor mini golf since about 2016 prior to the closure/remodel. The old Bullwinkles came back with a vengeance! Nicely updated! As per usual, our little one had a blast bouncing from game to game, and the neon bumper cars were fun, brought back the old carnival kid memories and the laser tag was definitely a highlight. It can get busy and the games add up, but it's a great place for kids to burn energy and adults to feel a little nostalgic. Solid spot for a family fun night. Not the cheapest place but a good short trip mini theme park that's local enough to be 15 min away from home is definitely worth a trip to have some fun every now and again! And don't forget to try the bumper boats! Take the kids they'll definitely enjoy and have fun, and adults too! lol

    Yummy food

    Bullwinkle's is great. This is the perfect spot for family fun or a gathering with friends. There's mini golf, arcade games, axe throwing, you name it. There's so many activities here that can be explored. I actually met my husband here, in our first date. I may be biased because of that lol I am a fan of Bullwinkle's! The food isn't half bad either. I recently came back with some friends. We played mini golf and it was really fun. We hit the western indoor golf course. It was fun! Just a little warm. We were sweating. They need to crank up the air conditioning. It gets super hot and stuffy in there. Other than that, it was fun. You can keep a score card if you want. I got two hole in ones! Total luck lol

    Took my 19 and 8 year old to the batting cages. Seanna O. and the young man were awesome. My daughters bat was too heavy and they made sure she didn't miss her pitches while getting her a lighter bat. I recommend (1) $7 set for small kids who don't usually play baseball. I bought (4) $7 sets to have 2 for each kid. My 19 yr old used 3 and 8 yr old used 1-all for under $30-great price if you ask me.

    I honestly didn't expect to have as much fun as I did at Bullwinkle's, but this place pulls you right into the nostalgia the second you walk in. It feels like one of those spots where the energy is already buzzing before you even touch a game card. The staff was surprisingly upbeat for how busy it was and the whole place had that lively, chaotic vibe in the best possible way. Everything looked clean, the arcade was actually functioning, and the food came out faster than I thought considering the crowd. I got that classic theme park feeling without having to drive halfway across California, which is already a win for me. What I really loved was that you could tell people were here to genuinely enjoy themselves. Families, teens, grown adults who clearly came to relive their childhood for a minute, everyone was just in a good mood and the place kind of feeds off that. The outdoor attractions were running smoothly and the staff kept things organized without making you feel rushed. Even the pizza, which I fully expected to be forgettable, was surprisingly decent, especially when you're already riding the high of beating someone in air hockey. The whole experience ended up being a lot more fun and easygoing than I expected, and it made me realize why people keep coming back. If you want a simple, upbeat day without overthinking anything, Bullwinkle's in Upland does the job really well. It's one of those places where you walk out smiling even if you didn't plan to. Perfect for a family day, a cute date spot, or a random afternoon when you just want to feel like a kid again.

    Manager and security talked to this dad who was BERATING a poor employee who told him it's not safe for his son to ride he's too short.

    Jacob and Santiago you guys rock! Came here for a birthday party and the service he provided was amazing! Jacob handled a whole party by himself and he was so patient. Not that there was any issues, but it can be overwhelming On the other hand, there was an unruly father who would not take no for an answer. Santiago had to get the manager and security because some dad was arguing with the poor employee about not letting his son go on a ride because he was too short. The manager came with security two separate times and he still would not listen. Thanks Bullwinkles , thank you for keeping us safe!

    Complete Rip-Off and Abysmal Management! What a rip-off this place is! And how poorly managed it is. I called on a Monday to reserve a party for my child for that upcoming Sunday (8/2). To my surprise, I was told they were completely booked up and was offered alternate days I declined since I was only visiting family and specifically needed to host that Sunday. I was advised I could still come in, grab tables on a first-come, first-served basis, and just do everything à la carte. I really wanted the party package because it's a much better value--especially since I was hosting 12 kids. When I arrived at Bullwinkle's and got our tables, I noticed ALL the party rooms were completely empty, despite being told they were fully booked! I went to talk to the party sales team, and they were incredibly rude. They just brushed me off with, "Sorry, we don't know what conversation you had with Kaydeane, the party sales rep." I explained that I was told the date was fully booked, yet the rooms were sitting wide open. After pressing them further, they finally admitted it was a staffing issue. I asked them to honor the party package pricing as a gesture of goodwill considering I was misled, especially since I didn't even need their empty party rooms or dedicated staff to host us. They refused. I tried explaining that paying customer shouldn't be penalized with inflated à la carte pricing just because they failed to staff their venue properly, but they just couldn't grasp basic customer service. Unreal! With 12 eager kids already on the way, I had no choice but to go ahead. The entire visit was a total disaster: * Absurd Pricing: I spent over $900 between food, attractions, and arcade games. * Broken Games: At least half of the arcade games weren't working and were just eating our credits with no way to get them back. We even loaded credits into games only to find basic equipment--like the balls--completely missing! * No Support: We couldn't find anyone to address the issues. Even if I had complained, the incompetent staff clearly didn't give a flying F, and nothing would have been done anyway. * Greedy Policies: When we asked for simple water cups, we were told they "did not have any" (lol) and that we had to buy $4 fountain drink cups just to get tap water. Seriously?!? What a poorly managed rubbish of a place with ZERO customer service. They literally had 10 employees standing around the cashier area doing absolutely nothing and unable to answer basic questions--staffing that easily could have been used to run the party rooms and honor packages. Save your money and take your kids anywhere else!

    Western theme - Indoor miniature golf, 18-hole course.
    Mary F.

    Bullwinkles in the city of Upland has upped their game (literally). It has something for everyone; Rock climbing, laser tag, bumper cars, bumper boats, indoor and outdoor miniature golf, go-kart race track, bowling, arcade, food/drinks... You can easily spend an entire day here exploring and experiencing all the different attractions they have. I brought my entire family for an indoor game of miniature golf, we chose the Western theme 18-hole course. I was impressed with the construction of this particular course. The aesthetics of it all, they spared no expense. The only negative: it gets crowded and waiting to start the next hole takes longer than expected. With that said, finishing a game could take a couple of hours. There are benches at every hole and slim tables to set your drinks on. Nonetheless, it was a great time. I would suggest paying a full day of play here, it makes better sense than paying for one attraction especially if you're going as a family, cost is per person. Staff at the front were friendly and helpful. It's clean, parking is free, great local place for kiddos and adults. Have fun!

    This space is running wildly. The security team is too young, jobs like that should be given to older and more committed staff. Andrew was helpful, but found my humor more important along with telling me his life story about being from Victorville. I was making a report, because when you are alone with a flat tire around children they try to punk you. Working on manners is important when you decide to be a latch key parent. Definitely rate the safety of this place very low, and I would be more mindful about hiring more diverse staff.

    This is the perfect place for quick family fun. Since they added upgrades, I heard good things about it and decided to take my son. The ambiance is cool, there's a bar, food hall and a nice arcade. Outside is they go carts and mini golf. I paid $35 for 3 different activities. We started with golf and it took about an hour to finish it. The line for the go carts was super long and I didn't have the patience to wait. The good thing is you can reuse your card when you return. I would recommend bringing the kids here for some quick fun.

    I was in town and wanted to play arcade games and realized this place had many more. when you walk in you pay for everything and its loaded on to a card. i started at the go carts it was a line but it went by quick. after i went play the arcade games. they were limited and some didnt work hut they had basketball, air hockey, and racing. sat at the bar to just chill and have a break which is nice. this place offeres so much, go karts, axe throwing, virtual ride arcade and more. definitely recommend for a fun night out.

    Rocio R.

    Loved it. Adults and kids had a blast. Parking was a bit hectic. Lines are a bit long. We got the 3 option package. For 5 of us it came out to 170 something. We did the laser, go karts and western mini golf. We were there for almost 3 hours. Paid 20 for two small beers. We didn't try the food but it looked good.

    Where can I find their pricing?

    My wife wants to go this place for her birthday with friends, is it fun for adults and are the prices reasonable?

    Yes

    Do they serve any adult beverages?

    Yes they offer alcohol.

    Do they sell alcohol?

    They do not! Currently concessions are lacking too. They have soft drinks and energy drinks but the construction is making the food and drink options less

    Is the new track open yet or is it still under construction?

    Still under construction 🚧

    How is the arcade? Do they have any fighting games? Back in the day their arcade rooms were the best.

    They are re-building the entire Bullwinkles it's going to be awesome. We'll have to wait till the reconstruction is completed and they reopen. Right now they're closed for the rebuild.

    Are the mini golf courses open?

    Yes. They have 3 courses currently open. One inside and two outside ones

    Are you open?

    Just went looks closed permanently! Phone is turned off

    My wife and I also showed up for our reservation to find locked doors. But another group said that…read morethe owner of the business next door had contacted the owner of Axem, and they said they were sending someone. So we decided to wait 45 minutes until someone came. Unfortunately for us, another party was waiting on an earlier reservation to use the rage room, so we had to go home. I understand that emergencies happen. HOWEVER, we know that the owner was contacted by at least an hour before we showed up for our reservation. That was ample time to call or email us to let us know that we should reschedule. You knew no one was there to run the business. You knew that people with reservations would be showing up. You did nothing to try to mitigate the problem. We had to find childcare. We had to go to the store and spend extra money to buy items to smash. You could have saved us a lot of trouble with a phone call. The irony is that after this experience, I really needed to smash something to get my frustration out.

They had just let the prior group start 8 minutes ago from when we arrived and they did not initially apologize or try in any way to make it up to us. They mentioned that they sold some breakable items for $3-$4 each but that we should spend the 20 minutes we needed to wait to go and purchase some breakable items from around the area while we waited. We asked if we could receive a discount for the rage room or if we could receive any of the $3/$4 breakable items for free, but they stated that the best they could do was to give a discount on the breakable items. We paid around $150 total for 5 of us so to only be offered a discount on items that are already only $3/$4 was laughable. They said they could not discount or refund a portion of the rage room cost at all, so there was no acceptable attempt made to make the situation right for us. As we dressed in protective gear for the rage room, we found that at least half of the protective gear we tried (helmets, gloves, jumpsuits) was defective, had holes in them, and wouldn't have been safe to wear. They also did not have enough protective gear for all five members of our group. When we asked for more protective gear, they stated they only had enough to supply 2-3 people at most with full protective gear and we were NOT notified of this after booking the rage room online. We will not be returning to this location due to the mistake they made with no reasonable attempt to make this right with us, the negligent and defective protective gear, and the lack of sufficient protective gear for our group.

    This is a nice place for either a rage room or an escape room…read more A few weeks ago, I did a rage room experience here, which was my first time doing a rage room. Marc, the owner, was very nice and kind. He even allowed me to do a special request where I wore an outfit (which is a Morpshuit with t-shirt and shorts) underneath the gear used for the rage room. Very kind of him to accommodate this. I have never done a rage room before, so it was a unique experience. Shattering glass, and breaking things felt very liberating and it helped me release tension/anger. Additionally, at the very end, there was even another surprise where Marc even taught me how to throw ninja stars on the wooden board. It was super cool. At first, I couldn't get any ninja stars to stick, but on one of my final attempts, I actually did get the ninja star to stick, which was awesome!! I was pretty elated that I was able to do that! Anyways, shout out to Marc the owner for being very nice and accommodating. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a cool, friendly place to do a rage room or an escape room. I should check out their escape rooms some time soon.

There's street parking and different structures you can park in as well. It's also on the second floor of a plaza, pretty easy to find. The inside is designed weird bc the front desk isn't obvious and you have to turn a corner to find it? There was only 1 person working that shift when I arrived. Apparently other people reserved 8pm too but they all were late so my social lane ended up being just me for a while before others joined. Sebastian did a great job of explaining the rules and he was super nice always coming around to check on me and the group of friends I randomly bumped into. He was very attentive and kind and funny! This is a great activity either for date night or a friends night out! I would definitely come come back with friends and utilize the Groupon again!
